as per
Step 4:
Using "The Homebrew Channel", open ?Custom Manager".
Using the same method as in "Step 3", install the "cIOS_Fix.wad".
Once installed, press the "Home" button, to restart you Wii.

The fix errors out with ret -2011 error.

If the custom WAD manager does not work used the regular WAD manager you cannot jump to the next step..what is the serial of your Wii? doe it start with LU64 or above?

it should be 2:look on your SD, it should be "apps/custom WM"

Step 2:
Using "The Homebrew Channel", open "WAD Manager".


Step 4:
Using "The Homebrew Channel", open ?Custom Manager".
Using the same method as in "Step 3", install the "cIOS_Fix.wad".
Once installed, press the "Home" button, to restart you Wii.
